For patch version 1.04, WolfeEye Studios has released Weird West update 1.12! This changes the game in several ways, including adding new features and fixing bugs. Here are the patch notes for Weird West for September 13.
Weird West September 13 Patch Notes:
Alternative Aiming System (Experimental)
In contrast to the traditional twin-stick shooter approach, we are testing a new alternative aiming method with Patch 1.04. It preserves camera controls while aiming. The gameplay options allow players to toggle this new mechanism ON/OFF at any time (including during an existing session).
Nimpossible Mode
With Patch 1.04, a brand-new game mode that introduces permadeath to the West and a high-stakes method of playing Weird West will become available.
Manual saving isn’t supported when using Nimpossible Mode. The game will automatically save your progress; only one specific auto-save slot can be used to play and reload the game. When you encounter Nimp Heads on your Journeys, you can revive yourself, but, once you run out of Nimp Heads, you die permanently, your playtime is done, and the auto-save file is deleted.
Mysterious Deaths Side Content
Certain side content (available exclusively in Nimpossible) has been added to the game to support the narrative about the resurrection procedure, and the arrangement struck with the Wanderers. After finishing Nimpossible, you will have access to two more travel encounters and a side mission.
Misc Additions
- To make it simple for players attempting a non-lethal playthrough to monitor their progress at any time during gaming, we integrated a tracker of your human kill count in the Reputation TAB. It was also resolved that killing Ravenous does not correctly count toward that total.
- Concerning non-lethal playthroughs, we have adjusted blunt weapons so that rushing an attack will prevent you from accidentally killing your target.
- In response to player feedback and to improve accessibility, we have also upgraded the “SloMo While Aiming” option.
